     During my high school experience, I have had the opportunity to serve my community in many ways.  Because of this, I have learned what ways I enjoy serving my community best.  It was a trial and error process for some of them; however, I learned from them and grew as a person nonetheless.  In college and then in my personal life beyond that, I plan on helping my community in any way that I can.  I think it's an important part of growing as a person and building strong relationships with the people that live in a community.  I'm thankful for this community service requirement because I was able to participate in many different types of community service, both big and small.  It truly helps people come together for a greater cause.
